Professor Volokh Quoted by Washington Post on Whether Political Activism Could Cause Issues in One’s Workplace

Professor Eugene Volokh was quoted by TheWashington Postabout what rights employees have in political activism outside the workplace. "It’s fair to say there are about a dozen states in which there is considerable protection for employees, at least off-duty, and maybe sometimes on duty, for political and ideological expression and activism," said Volokh. However, he notes, there are many cases where appropriate behavior is left to the employer’s judgement and where grey areas preside.
